      1. Statistically, it was bound to happen at some point I suppose. In my first Analysis lecture, the dean bet us that he could find at least one pair of people who’d been born on the same day in the same year. We found three pairs of “twins” even though there were only about 230-ish people total. He told us that in the 20(?30?) years he’s been teaching, he’s found at least one pair per year, then went to scribble something incomprehensible on the blackboard, then quickly erased it again before anyone could take notes and suddenly started telling us why Abel and Cauchy got along but sometimes not really. Most lectures with him are like that.

            1. Hmm, maybe. I guess it depends upon when you’re reading. Now, we’re early in a century, so it kind of seems like the default, but later on, it would seem more unusual, especially because if the person had died that year, it would mean they had a very long life.
